WHYP, 12/24/11, 6925 AM, approx 1430-1500z: WHYP Christmas retrospective with some hilarious satire on various pirate radio characters, real and... um... stockings.  Spoof of "Twas the Night Before Christmas" featuring sleigh pulled by sockpuppets.  Bits from Captain Ganja, the Maharishi Hashishi.  Alexander Ash hamorrhoid cream?  Football scores and weather reports featuring names of various pirate radio fans.  "Rocking Around Zeller's Ten-Tec".  "Neil Wolfish Got Run Over By George Zeller".  Ended with loop of Zeller's "So bad" audio bit.

Excellent show!  Pretty good copy all things considered, main problem was very choppy fades but able to copy most of program, SINPO=44423
